      @monsterfox Aside from that design may on a different position, there are definitely cases where precise mouse positioning is useful. For example, with menus, which are usually located in the same position. The actions in VS are sufficient in many cases, but unfortunately too limiting for me, as they don't support some commands. . . The macro recorder in CorelDraw was on a completely different level. Because the recorded steps were are converted into Visual Basic commands, allowing for to be edited after recording to insert loops or additional commands. In one of my jobs, I frequently used the standalone tool "AutoIt," which also allows for precise mouse positioning. The manufacturer's specific vector graphics/printing program didn't have any actions or macros. "AutoIt" is a well known Windows Tool for automating Tasks in App which didnt have a Action/Makro recorder. With this, I was able to automate many tasks, such as creating numerous DIN vector graphics symbols in various sizes. Doing this manually would have taken weeks. (DIN is a german Norm, in this case for Symbols) . . Unfortunately, VS doesn't follow Windows conventions sometimes in this regard, so it is not possible to use AutoIt in it. I think that when scripting is introduced (it's on the roadmap), the possibilities will expand in a way where I would be happier with.

      @monsterfox said in Queries Regarding VectorStyler 1.3: @VectorStyler Will a halftone effect with dot merging be added to the halftone panel in the future? In the case of the first image of this thread: The problem is not with dot merging, but with the shape of the halftone. Those halftones (first image) are created in postscript as images. So this exact case will not be added to the halftone panel. The second image from this thread might be possible, I have this in the backlog and will try to add it as soon as possible.

      @Daniel I love the ideas you've shared for the "simplify path" tool. I may end up using it a lot more as those ideas get added as @VectorStyler sees fit. I appreciate that VS has options for designers who need precise and exact edits to their curved paths and another option for those who are going for what looks good by sight for their art and are not needing something technical

      @ThatMikeGuy The object in your pic seems to be a single stroke ? For single stroke you have to use the "Crossing Gap" Shape effect, you find it under Outline shape effects the interwine effect needs at least two Objects the intertwine tool is here, see pic

      @marce said in Font Preview Size: @fde101 when making books you work with styles, is true. Not just with books, but with just about any kind of formatted content - newsletters, newspapers, etc. But when working with illustrated books, covers, children activity books, etc, Covers are a different sort of beast, and are more of an illustration project than a publishing project. Agreed that the regular use of styles for a cover is not as relevant as for the body of a publication. On the other hand, I am less inclined to agree that styles lose relevance when making "illustrated books" or "children's activity books" - there is ultimately still a level at which consistency throughout such books is perfectly relevant when creating a cohesive product and while such books are likely to contain a larger number of illustrative works (which individually might fall outside the normal use of styles) there are still elements that tie these things together for which the primary use of styles is still a good idea. font choosing is important. That is true for any kind of project in which text is involved if that project is going to be distributed. Need of design are wide and people works their way. The standardized professional way of work offenly is bypassed by creative people. True, and sometimes that is completely appropriate, other times it is bypassed to the detriment of the outcome or to the time taken to achieve it. Different projects and different situations call for different ways of working and different sets of tools. As I said in my other post: again, that is for a desktop publishing app; for a tool such as VectorStyler, it makes enough sense to offer it separately if people find such a thing useful

      @Boldline said in Add sub-categories to the repeater presets menu area?: When I go up a level and into the presets folder, I see one repeater preset listed. I don't see the default repeater presets that come with VS or the several custom presets I already created. That file contains all the current repeater presets. The default presets file is in the VectorStyler bundle (similar location), but it was copied to this file. When I look in the Window>Presets Flyout menu, I see dedicated options for brush presets, document presets, an option to open a brush preset file. I was confused why the brush presets options are listed but not the other presets, but I assume that's because users are most commonly importing brush presets? Brush presets have a separate menu command because it is quite common to use these and there are typically many of them. Other presets could have a separate panel, but then it gets too crowded with menu commands. You can drag out a section from the Presets panel into a separate panel. When I go to the presets panel, repeater brushes are not listed at all. You mentioned it might be a bug, but I have an old windows laptop I had yet to upgrade to VS1.3, so it was still using VS1.2. On that laptop, the same presets panel also lacks a repeater preset folder I will fix this

      @EricP A larger Length Limit value does not improve color sampling accuracy, @VectorStyler Image halftoning is the perfect solution.

      @Boldline i correct you Its no Problem to move, lets say the group of mirrored Objects. Just push the finish Button and you could move the whole group. If you in Mirror Mode only the original Object is movable or the mirror guides. Here a Video to show it.

      @VectorStyler There are some unexpected behaviours showing up when trying to export like this, but I will make a separate bug report post and proof and concept for that later.

      @VectorStyler Maybe I changed that setting accidentally, I will try to reproduce how I made that. Maybe when setting the new document or pasting the images. I will report later

      @Li-Xiao thanks for the tip. Yes bending is actually a good idea. I found it easy to control by grouping the path and blended shapes together before applying blending shape effect. Everything stays well connected
